Unfortunately that did not happen. We had a hero and a zero on the ticket and ended up with the zero.
Where does the line start? I might as well get in the the free gasoline and the mortgage payments.

WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENT, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?
"My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed.
Since Congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.
This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.
Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short . The United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some of the countries listed there .
The other list contains every one not on the first list. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening.
Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.
The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hell-holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.
Need help with a famine ? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France .
In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.
Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China .
I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France , Germany and Russia . Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bonne chance, mes amies.
I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York.
A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not p*** us off for a change.
Mexico is also on List 2 its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra thousand tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put'em? Yep, border security.
Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now.
We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska-which will take care of this country's oil needs for decades to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.
It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, 'darn tootin.'
Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America It is time to eliminate homelessness in America . To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and we won't forget.
To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to speak Arabic.
God bless America .. Thank you and good night."
If you can read this, thank a teacher . If you are reading it in English, thank a soldier.
Unfortunately, now that the liberals are in, all we're going to see is more capitulation, more foreign aid to nations working toward our destruction, and more cowardice in the face of the forces that threaten our nation.
Although I know he meant it ironically, I think it's time we gave serious consideration to the words of Randy Newman:
"We give them money
But are they grateful
No! They're spiteful
And they're hateful
They don't respect us
So let's surprise 'em
Let's drop the 'big one'
And Pulverize 'em"
Why are we giving money to these people? They never help us and they haven't done anything to earn it.
Anytime there's a disaster, we're there to help. How many countries came to our aid after Katrina?

It saddens me that you feel the need to equate the man who won the clear majority elected as a zero. I had started this thread with the intent of some kind of unifying, positive and hopeful message for whichever way it went. Bringing it down to the lowest point possible is a great way to keep the spirit going. Thanks Debbie Downer.jackiesic wrote:Unfortunately that did not happen.

Talk about much ado about nothing. The total foreign aid budget for 2008 is just over $30B, as part of a total federal budget over $3.1 Trillion. It makes up less than 1%. Nothing to gain by cutting here, but plenty to lose in goodwill were we to reduce this number significantly.mikemck wrote:Amen.TommyBahama wrote:SOMEONE SENT ME THIS..THOUGHT I'D PASS ON!!
